Raspberries are in and I find myself wishing, just briefly, that I had a larger piece of land on which to garden. This happens three times a year: during asparagus season, the beginning of potato season, and now, when the berries are actually in.

What I really want is what my friend George had down in Connecticut: a berry house. Loosely constructed of rough-hewn timbers with a door on hinges, the walls and roof were cloaked with chicken wire stretched tight like a skin.

ORWELL — In 1990, Orwell resident John Tester signed up his 6-year-old son for tee-ball in his then hometown of Union City, Calif., just outside of Oakland. Tester learned the team needed a coach, and he took the job.

The only catch was that Union City Little League baseball required its coaches to umpire.

VERGENNES — The loudest phase of Green Mountain Power Corp’s major project to rebuild parts of its Vergennes dam was set to start Monday morning, when demolition experts will begin what is expected to be about two weeks of a half-dozen blasts a day to clear out bedrock to allow replacement of what company officials call decaying piping.

Traffic on West Main Street will be stopped when blasting occurs, and motorists can expect delays.
